Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
On the side of the CJ-3A shown in this Mott mower brochure was printed “Akron” and “Canton”. I can’t make out the third word.
It appears to me to read Airport. The Akron Canton Airport is still in operation in Ohio.
Is that jeep set up as a dually?
The city of Clifton, NJ had 3 CJ3A’s back in the 1950’s equipped with similar mowers, this is how they cut grass in the city parks & ball fields. One of the Jeeps, in addition to the pull along mower had a side arm, 5-6 feet long that worked much like a hedge trimmer, mounted on the passenger side and controlled by the driver. (up & down)
That’s very cool. I live right by the Akron/Canton airport. I wonder if they have any historical photos around?
PICTURES???
Come on Bob, aim higher, see if they still have the JEEP !
The guy at the Canton Jeep dealer owned a hangar on the north side of the airport…
And in other news, someone has been breaking into airport hangers at the Akron/Canton airport. Nothing was reported stolen. Police suspect the perpetrator is looking for something in particular ….
